Traditional pre/post-natal care often tests the bare minimum, leaving countless symptoms unexplained: infertility, fatigue, anxiety, hair loss, low milk supply, brain fog, mood shifts, and more. Demetra Diagnostics fills this gap with advanced, stage-specific lab panels and expert interpretation that support women from preconception through postpartum.
At Demetra Diagnostics, we believe every woman deserves lab testing that reflects the full complexity of pregnancy, postpartum, and the seasons in between. Because your hormonal landscape, nutrient demands, thyroid function, and inflammatory markers don’t stay the same from preconception through postpartum (and neither should your labs).
Built by practitioners who live and breathe functional lab testing, our approach fills in the gaps that standard prenatal or primary care often can’t address, offering a more complete picture of your health.

Lauren and Romana have spent years changing lives in functional medicine, helping clients uncover root causes through comprehensive testing. But when they turned their attention to maternal health, they discovered a glaring void.
Women were coming to them frustrated, dismissed by traditional prenatal care, searching for answers about symptoms that affected their daily lives. Despite their clinical expertise, both practitioners realized that even functional diagnostic testing wasn't adequately providing maternal protocols.
The solution became clear: create testing tracks designed exclusively for the unique physiology of motherhood, interpreted by specialists who understand what pregnancy and postpartum actually demand from the body.
Here's how each brings their expertise to this mission...
Lauren is a nationally recognized nutrition expert and founder of Functional Fueling Nutrition, where she has spent over a decade helping individuals with endocrine, thyroid, and autoimmune conditions understand their bodies and resolve symptoms naturally. As a Board Certified Sports Dietitian with advanced training in functional endocrinology, she has guided thousands of clients who felt dismissed by traditional care.
Her journey to creating Demetra began during her own pregnancy. Despite her extensive clinical expertise and access to advanced testing, Lauren experienced firsthand how traditional prenatal care left critical questions unanswered. This personal experience as a new mother, combined with years of witnessing clients struggle with inadequate testing during their reproductive years, sparked the vision for comprehensive maternal health testing that actually serves women through their most transformative seasons.
Romana brings deep expertise in functional medicine and diagnostic interpretation to Demetra Diagnostics. As a key clinician at Functional Fueling Nutrition, she has developed extensive experience analyzing complex laboratory results and translating them into clear, actionable protocols for clients with hormonal and metabolic imbalances.
Her specialized training in functional endocrinology and commitment to root-cause investigation made her the perfect partner for Lauren's vision of maternal health testing. Romana has witnessed countless women navigate fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum with lab work that tells only part of their story, fueling her passion for the comprehensive approach that Demetra provides.
